Students collect and count money amounts involving coins while playing this engaging board game.
This collaborative maths game is ideal for teaching your students to recognise and know the value of different denominations of coins in British currency.
Preparing the Resource
Print the game board, objective cards and coin cards on thick card for increased durability. You may wish to print multiple copies of the currency cards so there are enough of these for a multiple-player game.
How to Play
- Choose an objective card. This will be the focus of the game’s play.
- Player 1 rolls the dice, then collects coin cards that equate to the amount represented on the space they have landed on.
- Play continues with each player taking their turn. Once all players have reached the finish, determine which player is the winner (depending on the objective card drawn at the commencement of play).
Are your students ready for an additional challenge? Try our version of this game that includes both coins and notes!

Would be a great learning activity but in the UK the currency is pounds and pence, not cents and dollars.
